Coach Jim Mora said DE Patrick Kerney’s strained groin has improved enough for him to start Sunday. He also said he will have to see how CB Ken Lucas is upon his return from burying his father in Mississippi on Friday before he knows if Lucas will start as planned. Lucas played last weekend, two days after his dad died unexpectedly. … The coach said backup C Steve Vallos is likely to split plays with Mansfield Wrotto at LG Sunday. Both are filling in for Rob Sims, who is out with a high ankle sprain. … OT Damion McIntosh, signed Tuesday, six weeks after Kansas City released its former starter, will be active simply because he’s healthy and provides needed depth. Mora said McIntosh still needs to learn the plays before contributing much.

Good if the Hawks get Kerney back for this game. I hope Lucas plays, though. If not, it's understandable why he doesn't play.
